The play that is still confusing me

[TX_Yid]

Haven't seen it mentioned elsewhere.. but the under thrown pass to TO when he had lost his covering CB, had an open route to the end zone at about the 10 and Bledsoe lobbed it 5-10 yards short of him to (I think) Lito sheppard for an Int.

*** happened on that play? did TO see the open space and hope Bledsoe could read the developing opportunity and Bledsoe didn't improvise with him?
or did Bledsoe severely under throw with TO on the correct route?

If they could have connected there, it's 31-31 and TO has just killed the crowd. damn that would have been sweet.

I don't think it is clear what exactly happened. If Bledsoe was confused then he needed to just launch the ball over T.O.'s head and out of bounds, not just put it up for the defense to catch. I don't think it was a sure fire TD opportunity, but it did not need to be a turnover. Drew blew that pass.

If you watch the replay, the safety didnt get over there that fast. He was help over the top for the CB. There was a hole in the coverage in that corner of the endzone area. Thats where the ball needed to be.

Bledsoe under-threw the feaking pass. TWO EAGLES were in front of T.O. and it was an easy INT. If Bledsoe actually puts arm under it, T.O had a TD in the corner of the endzone. He had beat Sheppard and Dawkins.

Oh well..lets move on..

When I saw that play, the first thing I thought I had was "Bledsoe is thinking 'if I screw this up TO is gonna be all over me'".
Bledsoe looked,from his throwing motion, like he was trying to put some air under the ball so TO could run under it but he just choked.
